Murder is a messy business, especially for the person who has to clear up afterwards: in this case, me. I didn't commit the murder, you understand, I just found it. Him, I found him ...Juno Browne is a self-appointed Domestic Goddess. From cleaning to dog-walking to caring for the elderly, she flits around the picturesque town of Ashburton in her trusty van ready to turn her hand to anything. But when she takes on a new client, Old Nick, little does she expect to be pulled into the shady world of antique dealing and find herself in the middle of a murder investigation - and, if she's not careful, the next victim, too.

After high school, Michelle married Brandon Bloss, 25, while Keary and Devon lived together. Michelle used her husband's credit card to finance a trip for herself and Devon to the island of St. Croix, where they were secretly wed. Back home in Easton, Pennsylvania, on a night in June 2000, Devon broke up with Michelle, and a series of violent quarrels ensued among the foursome. The next day, Devon was found dead in her car.
